The Elite 110 looks like is a solid fallback option even though it's a bit bigger. The Node 202 says it doesn't support 3.5" drives but I found this: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/gX9WGX which is genius. I would go for this if I ever found a used 202 cheap enough. I like the sound of the SG13 DIY route the most, it's hard to know if it will work without having a case in front of me though. Any other budget DIY options that come to mind?

I'm planning on building a surveillance PC that runs: mITX mobo, low profile cooler, no GPU, 2x 3.5" HDDs A 350w PSU is more than enough, and I'm looking to build this cheaply so something like a VS350 ATX PSU is good enough, but I am flexible if something smaller (SFX/flex/etc) of a similar price can be found to fit in a smaller case. What's the smallest case under £50 (and available in the UK) that can fit this system?

The brick with the barrel plug? There are some other adaptors on aliexpress that use a barrel plug but it only provides the 12v and not the extra 5v the HDD needs. The amazon one blocks the data sata port on the HDD.

I need an esata out, not USB. I was looking at a few 3.5" enclosures, but they tend to be >£50 and the cheapo generic ones have bad reviews https://www.amazon.co.uk/NEWLink-NL-HD29-ESATA-IDE-SATA-HDD-Enclosure-B/product-reviews/B000S8BZ12/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_show_all_btm?ie=UTF8&reviewerType=all_reviews

I have a 3.5" WD Purple HDD I want to have as an external, always-on storage for my surveillance system. It will connect to my NVR system via eSATA, so I assume a sata-to-esata cable will work just fine for that. The problem is how do I power it? I think a 3.5" HDD needs both 12v and 5v power via SATA. I was thinking of using a sata to molex adapter, and then powering the molex via mains power with something like this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32809227367.html The problem is that these seem to be low quality, some reviewers have had theirs blow up, and others show the voltages vary a lot (5.8v when it should be 5v). So I don't want to take risks blowing a £100 HDD, even if the adaptors are so cheap. Does anybody know of a better quality version of these, or a different solution? Hoping to spend <£25 in all.

Bought it off someone else. Any idea what's causing it? The lines show on the OSD and the benq purple logo screen but not the blue no signal screen???

Any idea what these are our how to fix it, they can be seen on all inputs at all resolutions. Benq gw2765ht They are perfectly uniform on plain colour backgrounds

The New Razer Blade for sure. 1080p is enough for now and the graphics card will work perfectly with it. The laptop also looks better than the stealth. The 1TB SSD also make me drool.

I love the "I can't feel my legs" signature .. just kidding The anodized aluminum finish and backlit keyboard really make it look so sexy

My favorite thing about the G3 is the overall look/design of it. It looks super sexy and clean (especially with buttons on the back.)
